witnessing, emptiness, fullness, conflict, confusion, doubt, calmness, agitation, enthusiasm, uncertainty, certainty, relaxation, nervousness, peace, elation, frustration, freedom, bondage, depression, excessive thinking, non-conceptualization, illness, boredom

Simple question: in the list above of different states, do you see hexagrams? For instance, 'peace' might be Hex 11, and 'relaxation' might be 40, for instance.

The IC is a language and as such can represent ANYTHING. This includes states of consciousness, of emotion, of personality type etc etc etc Using the IC as a filter means that all information can be turned into IC forms of representation.

The hexagrams describe the manifestation of Space in Time. What each hexagram "means" depends on the relative understanding of the individual; and, of course, the state or quality of her/ his awareness. We are not our thoughts, emotions or sensations.

New York: 1
New Mexico: 2
Louisiana: 47
Nevada: 55

Depression is covered in mountain. 47 covers the positive expression and negative expression of being contained. The 47/06 pair share the same space, 47 is more unconditional, 06 conditional. As such depression as a CONSEQUENCE os 47 is possible but not as a representative of 47 - IMHO.

Hmmm, I wonder what a New Yorker has for NJ... No, don't answer that. :rofl:

I could imagine 47 coming up in connection with nervousness (especially the yin lines), frustration (because it follows from 46, when you fondly imagined that actually arriving at the summit would follow from 46), maybe bondage (depending what you mean by that, of course), depression and probably also excessive thinking (words not trusted) for good measure.

(fwiw)

Hi Bamboo and Luis,

47 for Louisiana is great--covers both Katrina and Superbowl!
NM as hex 2 is lovely.
NV as 55--don't we wish here now but we do still love our fireworks displays and wild private darkness that breaks arms and keeps on going.

I don't see NY as Sunshine though or TX/Calli as just Sunbelt blessings where is their darkside? Perhaps 15 for N. Calif where everything is balanced by something opposite and for S. Calif--what can I say--living there back in the day I realized it was the engineering reconstruction of the Medieval vision of Hell with electricity quite literally hellfire compared to a campfire.

Luis--There can't be a New Yorker's notion of NJ in hexagrams-- no negative numbers in hexagrams.

I prefer political states associations for hexagrams to emotional ones. Of course lots of other political entities are called states by geographers...
